Summary
Goose has been dead for a week and a half when Iceman loses his first wingman in a dogfight with six Soviet MiGs over the Sea of Okhotsk.
Goose has been dead for thirty years when Iceman loses his second wingman to a surface-to-air missile on the tail-end of a mission he's responsible for: he's sent his family on a suicide mission to destroy a uranium enrichment facility in Russia's Far East.
This is the story of those thirty years in the middle.
(Or: Tom Kazansky rises through the ranks while trying to stay a good man. If he ever was one to begin with.)
[Final edit 2/4/23. See Ch. 1 notes for major changes.]

Summary
Maverick doesn’t regret it when he takes the hit, when the last thing he hears before he ejects is Rooster screaming his name.
But then he wakes. Not to a vast, white snowfield behind enemy lines—but to an inverted cockpit of an F-14.
And to Goose, alive and well in the seat behind him.
—
Or; the time-travel fix-it in which TG:M Maverick wakes up at the start of TG (1986).

Summary
With a flourish, Allison gestures to where Neil and Andrew are standing by the gate.
"Intense eye contact," she says.
"Intense eye contact," Matt agrees.
Dan sighs.
Neil and Andrew find themselves in the past, just in time for Neil's first year at Palmetto. They're making plans for their second time around now, how much to change and how much to not change. Except...
Neither of them bothers to tell the rest of the team anything.

Summary
Neil runs because it's everything to him, but he also runs because there isn't anything else for him to do. Turns out, freedom and living are foreign concepts to him. Running and survival? Not so much.
He went back to creature comforts, the only ones he'd ever known. What else was he supposed to do? What else was he meant to yearn for? Can't want something you never knew existed, after all.
Enter Andrew Minyard.

Summary
"If one were to ask Andrew Minyard - not that anyone ever does, but if - he would say Riko Moriyama is a sadistic prick.
But no one asks Andrew, because Riko is King. And kings cannot die.
Except, of course, for when they do."
OR
Riko is dead and the press are calling it a suicide, but Andrew isn’t sure that’s the whole truth. The Ravens are splintering, Kevin could benefit from some therapy, and two of Riko’s most loyal players have just transferred to Palmetto State.
Andrew has a bad feeling about this season.
He’s never wrong about these things.

Summary
Neil's been on his feet for the last thirty-six hours. His leg is aching, his interns are all idiots, his charge nurse thinks he should've gone home hours ago, but Neil can't bring himself to leave the knowing chaos of the ER.
He tells himself he'll see one more patient. One more, then he'll clock out.
Except, Neil's last patient of the day turns out to be a professional exy player, who's just punched another doctor, might be hiding some knives, and seems determined to notice everything Neil is trying to hide.
And, well - maybe Neil doesn't want to hide from one Andrew Minyard.
OR
Neil is an emergency physician and Andrew is a pro exy player who keeps finding himself in Neil's ER. Oblivious flirting ensues.
Kevin's there too. Just...being Kevin.

It’s cold, that’s all, and the breeze is kicking up. That’s why Steve feels the chill go up his spine like someone dropped an ice-cube down his back.

Summary
Lyanna Stark lives, and with her son Jon she returns to Winterfell after the fall of the Mad King. Six years of uneasy peace follow, as Rhaegar Targaryen rules from King’s Landing and the realm heals its scars. But old wounds fester, new alliances form, and the game of thrones stirs again. In the North, wolves grow strong; in the South, dragons cling to crowns of ash and whispers. Between wolves and lions, stags and snakes, one boy must learn what it means to be both Stark and Targaryen, as the fate of kingdoms bends once more toward war.

Summary
At the beginning of the Hogwarts 1977-1978 school year, James Potter finds a cat and Regulus Black finds a Horcrux.
These events are not unrelated.
What follows is a deal to their mutual benefit: James helps Regulus hone the finer details of advanced transfiguration, and in return, Regulus teaches James what he knows of occlumency and legilimency. James is pleasantly surprised by how much he enjoys their lessons, certainly more than he thought he would considering what (admittedly little) he knows of Sirius’s younger brother. Regulus, for his part, thought he was smart enough to know that anyone with as many secrets as him has no business teaching fucking mind reading to another person. Especially when that person is James Potter.
There is affection—the kind that only comes from meeting someone you never expected to understand you. And there is war—a looming thunderhead that neither of them wants to see consume the other.
The rest is a matter of secrets, family, and letting go.

Summary
She’s fifteen when it happens. Jinx has no one to blame but herself and her own curiosity, but in her defense, Sevika got drunk and just wouldn’t shut up about all the fun she got up to in Babette’s brothel. And in the Undercity, kids don’t stay kids for long. Jinx has grown up around this nonsense for years. So she bites the proverbial bullet and decides to see what all the fuss is about.
“It was one time!” Jinx complains in sheer disbelief. “It wasn’t even that good!”

Summary
That was how Regulus Black came tearing into his life. Not like a shooting star, but a bit of shrapnel.
The year is 1936.
James Potter, a second-rate English novelist, abandons the comfort of his parlor room to fight the fascists in Spain.
Regulus Black, an orphaned Russian soldier, dreams in half-forgotten memories of ballrooms and long-lost brothers.
(Or, an Anastasia!Regulus AU, tilted slightly slantways.)

Summary
There's a rumor going around the Quarters that there's a general in the Republic Army who was seen wearing the Amarattu, a general who calls himself Sky-Walker and Rain-Bringer, a warrior unfettered and fearless. They say that he’s a Jedi Knight, that he wields a blue lightsaber and calls the slave-clones by the names they chose for themselves. It’s probably bantha shit, but Nima has to admit that even if it is a lie, it's by far the prettiest one she’s heard in years.
With Anakin off-planet on a mission and her anti-slavery bill being blocked at every turn, Padmé is feeling useless, exhausted, and very, very alone. Enter Nima, a twelve-year-old Amivakka slave of one of Orn Free Taa's aides. After being freed, Nima forces Anakin to remember that which he'd rather forget-- and in doing so, saves Padmé, Anakin, and the galaxy.

Summary
In 1981, the war ended with Voldemort’s death. Thirteen years later, Regulus still lives in the shadow of his parents’ contribution to the cause. No matter how hard he works or how much he accomplishes, he can’t escape the weight of his family name.
With the biggest project of his career now in front of him, Regulus leaves London to pose as a Healer on the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary. The only hiccup is a variable he never could’ve accounted for: James Potter, whose presence disrupts Regulus’ plans and forces him to reconsider everything he thought he knew.
